Linking
| Option name | Equivalent pragma name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| -b | None. | Sets special linker processing options. This option can be repeated. |
| -bmaxdata | None. | Sets the maximum size of the area shared by the static data (both initialized and uninitialized) and the heap. |
| -brtl | None. | Enables runtime linking for the output file. When you use -brtl with the -l option, the linker searches for a library with the suffix of .so, as well as of .a. Preference is given to .so over .a when libraries with the same name are present in the same directory. |
| -qcrt | None. | Specifies whether system startup files are to be linked. |
| -e | None. | When used together with the -qmkshrobj option or -G option, specifies an entry point for a shared object. |
| -f | None. | Names a file that stores a list of object files for the compiler to pass to the linker. |
| -L | None. | Searches the directory path for library files specified by the -l option. |
| -l | None. | Searches for the specified library file. For static and dynamic linking, the linker searches for libkey.a. For runtime linking with the -brtl option, the linker searches for libkey.so, and then libkey.a if libkey.so is not found. |
| -qlib | None. | Specifies whether standard system libraries and XL C libraries are to be linked. |
| -Z | None. | Specifies a prefix for the library search path to be used by the linker. |
